failed

I have had my faultless Milltek fitted for 1-1/2 years without fault but last week it decided to snap the welded joint where the pipe goes into the rear of the back box from the axle pipe section. I am dissapointed to say the least, has anybody else had problems like this? Also what is there...

It seems my car doesn't like the cold icy weather as the ABS has failed. took car out to see if it was still working but it doesnt, only skids. is there anything to look for, something that could cause it. or do i need to take it to get vag com'd ? thanks simon.

So took our 54 reg 1.2S to the dealer for 4yr (40K) service and MOT. Failed MOT on NS wishbone bush (why this one should be a fail, and the other one perfectly OK baffles me) and uneven rear brakes. Both quickly fixed - a mere £200 that we hadn't expected. Car has only done 33K is...

Hello all, Car failed MOT yesterday, left front alloy (had for 4 months) had a big dent in, guess I must have hit a pot hole, tyre is ok, no air leaking but the inside of the rim is dented. Can I get this repaired? The chap said being alloy it may smash if they hit it out!! Any...
